Move towards the minimum

Its simplicity and English countryside style

In our culture today, the minimum idea raises pictures of almost empty rooms without a character, decoration or color, but this is a fairly narrow definition. Its simplicity is simply choosing the things you really use and really enjoy. On the other side of the currency, there is another legend that the English country style requires an abundance of charming elements. The English country style can be full and attractive without disturbing.

Practical advice to move towards a minimum

Start with purification. This quotation written by Shannon Ashson, “You cannot organize chaos, and you cannot decorate chaos.” Very true. The best (and the only way) to move towards a simplified house is the retreat. I noticed that we moved over the past year in which we reject our house, I have done this three different ways depending on the time and inclination available in the season. I hope one of these methods will hesitate with you!

More time and motivation: the targeted areas that cause the bottle’s greatest flow in your home flow. This is an face -to -face face approach that makes the greatest progress. I would like to apply this method when I had larger parts of time and an area that was driving me crazy. This stain in our house was what we called “The Big Room”. This (bad) room was converting the garage. It has not been heated or cooled and is therefore not used for most year. My goal started to get rid of our house as a reaction to this unused space! Some time and motivation: This approach is called “SKIM as you go”. While I clean or do routine works around the house, pull the clear things that we do not use, broken, or repetitions. The place where you can make progress in small pieces of time (5 to 15 minutes) and can make progress without disturbing the flow of the house.

Its comfortable simplicity

I am fully convinced that you can get the warm house and welcome that you always wanted comfortable and layer – without disturbing and difficult to clean! For example here in our living room, we have a very comfortable sofa roaming in a good book and a cup of hot tea. All you need to relax and comfort is here. Throwing cushions, soft blanket, warm glow from the lamp … but the side tables are completely clear, and the floor is clear. In fact, the floor is the key to the presence of a house that is easy to clean. The more you have on the floor, the easier it is in the emptiness/MP. For this reason, I tend to choose the furniture on the legs.

In short, if you are going to include things in this picture, there is not a lot, but she still feels restored! Besides textiles, the use of color and lighting is the best way to add the charm of a hut without chaos. Layers and patterns to create a warm atmosphere, to this, add some incandescent terms and you have a charming and comfortable house!

Its simplicity in my house

Once I started seeing dangerous results of retreat, the momentum continued to build, and the purification decisions became easier and easier. It has become easier to avoid driving purchases and become more intense with new purchases. There is no way I will sabotage all the hard work that we did in his statement by buying a lot of new things! The space we have gained in getting rid of chaos allows gentle things that we must really shine. This has a ripples in motivating me more focusing on quality pieces by choosing well -made furniture and immortal decoration elements in the style of the English country.

In our hall bath, we have some layers of the English country that make the space similar to the room and warm, while the very simplified storage means that I can clean this bathroom in about 10 minutes if you receive an unexpected call, the company is coming!

Benefits of its simplicity in the style of the English country

The most unexpected benefit we gained from removing our home was hope. With my home lighter and easier to clean and manage, I started reaching the elements in the previously buried tasks list. I can see where this path can mean getting things up sooner, faster, and I have time to do things that I really want to reach. I hope this post and video also brings you hope to have the home you always want to start today!

Even next time, take care of yourself,
